Control of Lyme borreliosis and other Ixodes ricinus-borne diseases
Lyme borreliosis (LB) and other Ixodes ricinus-borne diseases (TBDs) are diseases that emerge from interactions of humans and domestic animals with infected ticks in nature.

ABSTRACT Background Tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is one of the most significant zoonotic diseases in Europe. It primarily spreads through the bites of infected ticks and, less frequently, through consumption of raw milk and dairy products from viremic domestic ruminants.

The newly identified tick-borne Alongshan virus (ALSV), a segmented Jingmen virus group flavivirus, was recently associated with human disease in China. We report the detection of ALSV RNA in Ixodes ricinus ticks in south-eastern Finland.

Alpha‐Gal Sensitization Dynamics in Individuals After Tick Bites With or Without Erythema Migrans
ABSTRACT α‐Gal syndrome (AGS) is an emerging tick‐borne disease characterised by the development of specific immunoglobulin E (sIgE) antibodies against galactose‐α‐1,3‐galactose (α‐gal), a carbohydrate found in most mammalian species, but not in humans. AGS occurs in individuals with a history of tick bites.

The Release of Non‐Native Gamebirds Is Associated With Amplified Zoonotic Disease Risk
Spillback is potentially an important mechanism by which non‐natives contribute to zoonotic disease emergence. We capitalise on quasi‐experimental releases of non‐native pheasants (Phasianus colchicus) to compare native pathogen prevalence between sites with similar local conditions but different non‐native densities. Prevalence of Borrelia sp.

Impact of vertebrate communities on Ixodes ricinus-borne disease risk in forest areas
The density of questing ticks infected with tick-borne pathogens is an important parameter that determines tick-borne disease risk. An important factor determining this density is the availability of different wildlife species as hosts for ticks and ...

GRAPHICAL ABSTRACT ✓ Bovine anaplasmosis is a major tick‐borne disease affecting cattle herds. ✓ The global prevalence of Anaplasma phagocytophilum in cattle was 8.5%. ✓ Mongolia and Guatemala were countries accounted for the highest prevalence. ✓ Anaplasma phagocytophilum was most prevalent in cattle African region and Hot‐summer Mediterranean climate.

Deep Sequencing Analysis of the Ixodes ricinus Haemocytome
Ixodes ricinus is the main tick vector of the microbes that cause Lyme disease and tick-borne encephalitis in Europe. Pathogens transmitted by ticks have to overcome innate immunity barriers present in tick tissues, including midgut, salivary glands epithelia and the hemocoel.
